The literature on prognostic features on the final outcome in RA is reviewed. It is generally agreed that female sex and a positive RF are variables indicating a poor prognosis. Longstanding increased ESR and CRP values, decreased Hb, or the appearance of subcutaneous nodules are indicators of a less favorable clinical course. No conclusions can be drawn regarding other factors due to the incomplete and heterogeneous study designs.
本文综述了关于类风湿关节炎(RA)最终结局的预后特征的文献。一般认为,女性和类风湿因子(RF)阳性是提示预后不良的变量。血沉(ESR)和C反应蛋白(CRP)长期升高、血红蛋白(Hb)降低或出现皮下结节是临床病程不太有利的指标。由于研究设计不完整且存在异质性,无法就其他因素得出结论。
